Evo 3D battery life - You guys getting this too?

BATTERY LIFE ON NEW EVO 3D:

90% battery after 12.5hrs!

I keep all the radios on (4G, 3G, wifi, bluetooth, gps) and brightness set to auto.
...
I couldn't do a screen shot from the phone cuz no root yet

Manl, that's insane how efficient the new dual cores are!

Only if you dont use the phone. Hence your display percentage so low. Mine went about 12.5 hours on battery with the display on for 3h total

That is one thing that I don't understand about this phone. Sometimes, i'll pull it off the charger and not touch it for 12 hours and the battery will still be in the 90's like you see above. Other times, i'll pull it off the charger and not touch it and it will just slowly drain and be into the 60's or 70's after 12 hours (and it's still sleeping). Don't get it. Signal is always good here too.

I get about 3 hours of battery, and I don't even use it for calls really.

Sitting at about 50% with 18 hrs gone by. The display takes up most of the battery usage.

cout << "3VO" << endl;

built in settings app i guess u can say.... about phone> battery>battery use

kilik64 · Jul 14, 2011

he was talking about the indicator in the top left corner.

curious too, currently using the simi clock battery. Fan of that, but having one in the top bar would be cool...

demo27vol1 · Jul 14, 2011

After 7 or 8 hours I hit about 20-25%. With Juice Defender Ultimate I get about an hour more of battery. But thats still not enough for me hah.

What are you guys' usage patterns like? My battery life is no where near what I'm seeing in this thread. Maybe I use my phone too much.

I know why my battery life sucks. I use it way too much... Lol... Underclocking to 685mhz works pretty well and the phone isn't all that laggy. It is definitely bearable.

The only days I get battery life anywhere close to that are the days that I am super busy and just don't touch my phone, except to answer a call or text. Days where I have too much time, I'll constantly be on my phone playing games, researching things, youtubing stuff, listening to music, and on those days I'll get 9-12 hours, which is still good in my book. It'll easily go over a day with very light usage. I can leave it off the charger at 100% over night, and it'll be at 97% or so when I wake up, but as soon as I get on that XDA app for 20 minutes I'll be down to 75%, lol. It's ironic that the XDA app is such a major battery drain, and that is one of the apps that I use the most.

If you get '3 hours of battery and don't use it for calls' then you either have a defective phone or lying. I do vallet and play Video's all day work 5PM-4AM and I never have to charge my phone although close to dead by the time I leave. 3 hours? I don't think so.

Fact 1: 9 times out of 10, if you don't use your phone at all, the battery will barely drain.

Fact 2: If you were to actually pick up and use the phone, you wouldn't get nearly as long out of the battery.

That's something that baffles me about people and keeping track of battery usage. They leave their phone sitting there over night and all day without touching it, and then have kittens when the battery percentage barely goes down. Well.. newsflash, that will happen if you don't use the phone at all. I guarantee that if you were to use the phone for any length of time the battery would drain a lot faster than that. So that isn't an accurate indicator of the phone's battery life.

Idk if this is the one displayed in the OP but I use the app Battery Status Bar which is similar.
